Retro fitting a Westy interior

Post by bmouthrob »

I have gotten my grubby mitts on a Westfalia interior. I'm in the process if re upholstering the rear bench as it was in a bit of a sorry state, however in parallel I am looking at fitting the structure of the rear bench. There are various mount points, both on the floor and also the rear in front of the engine access. I have checked and unfortunately none of those mount points exist so my question is what is the best way to create mount points in the various places?

Thanks in advance!

They are additional mounting points westfalia, specific, assume is LHD ? I’m breaking a Westy so could cut the mountings out and measure their locations

Hi bmouthrob

Where are you based? Im sure I have 1 mount left from when I fitted the westy interior in my syncro, I have no measurements but there is a lot of pics on my thread that may help you....http://forum.club8090.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=141925

With the mount you can easily make up some others, drop me a PM
